Volks,
   This could have been said and if so please
excuse me.  Synthetics have shorter chemical
chains and that is why they take so long, if
ever, to break down.  That's why the can sneak
through the small openings in your oil system.
   My old boss used to work for GE and they had
some synthetic lubes they were evaluating.  They
put them in some welded aluminum containers and
they snuck out the welds and bubbled up the
paint.  That's what he said at least.
